Beloved husband of Nora Olive White Brickey. He owned and operated the Shell Service Station 9 miles west of Lordsburg (near Gary) since 1938.
Father of Joel Loniel Brickey, Lorine Brickey Webb, Roy Adrian Brickey, Mary Mae Brickey Williams, Iva Brickey Cardell, Delores Fern Brickey Garvin, Newelton (Big Jim) Lloyd Brickey and 4 infants who died young. He has many grandchildren and great-grandchildren who survive him. He was a happy go lucky man who would help those travelers in need whenever he could. He and his sons were excellent mechanics. We still miss you grandpa!
Hubert worked for the WPA during the depression. He cut wood, hauled sand to help build the Mormon Temple in Mesa, picked cotton and beans, cut wood, hoed potatoes-anything that would make his family a living. Hubert had a very good singing voice, I can remember him breaking into
song many times...and sometimes just whistling, just because he was happy, I think! He sang at the Timber Hills church where he and Nora attended when they were young, and where his father Joel was preaching and teaching music. Hunting and fishing kept meat on the table.
IN 1942 THEY WERE LIVING AT VIRDEN, NEW MEXICO.
Timber Hills is where he met his life-long love, Nora Olive White, and married her at Madill, Marshall, Ok on Nov 29, 1916.
As a youngster, I remember that when grandma Nora was in the kitchen, cooking or doing dishes, that Grandpa Hubert would sneak up behind her, and untie her apron strings. It always amused her, but she would turn around and threaten him with a wooden spoon. Their love was obvious to any who could read the signs. Their home life was strict but loving. Grandpa could not only sing, but could play the harmonica and jews harp. As children growing up, we had good times when family members played instruments and sang songs after a wonderful potluck dinner.
When Hubert got ill and they could no longer operate the station, (in the middle 1960's) they sold it, (or the lease went back to the Kerr family, I think) and spent the remainder of his time living with the children. Each and every one of his children loved to have them there. We got to know our grandparents well because of this time they spent with us. Grandpa, even when ill, would tease us kids. In 1966 my parents turned their garage into an apartment for them, and I can still see grandpa lying in the bed, and grandma at the stove cooking black eyed peas for him. I still love the smell of those peas today….good memories.
Nora's brother Jeneral Lee White and wife, Ivy Belshe White sold the station to Hubert and Nora (in about 1936-38) their life was more settled. During the early times of their marriage, they had to go where the work was.
When the old highway 80 was moved, they had to move their station over to the new highway where I-10 is at this time. Those were good years for them, and where most of their children remember the most.
Another move had to be made (1959-1960) over to the Animas exit when the new I-10 went through, when the state invoked their "eminent domain". My dad and uncles helped them to re-build, but to no avail, business was no longer on the freeway and easy access. After that the business went pretty well downhill.
Several years later, Hubert became too ill to run the business and they started living with their children.
I will always cherish tose wonderful memories of when I had them in my life!
Hubert was the son of Joel Allen and Nellie (Dawson) Brickey, who are buried at Nocona, Texas. Hubert was born in the Choctaw Indian Territory (now Leflore Co. Oklahoma).
I proudly own the Ok Gen Society, First Families Of The Twin Territories Certificate for both of them, Nora's was for Ravia, Johnson Co. Ok (Indian Territory).
His siblings were: Samuel, Henry, Dewey, (died young); Katie (Roper), Theulie (Whitten), Jewell Brickey (never married) and James Harmon Brickey (Callie Green).
Hubert died at the home of his eldest son, Loyn at Lordsburg, NM and was laid to rest at Mountain View Cemetery. He had prostate cancer for many years, but died from pneumonia, I think. his last thoughts were of his wife, Nora, and how she would get by without him.
His wife, Nora would be laid to rest beside him in 1984. ALL OF HIS CHILDREN ARE DECEASED NOW IN 2018.
What we have once enjoyed, we can never lose...
All that we love deeply becomes a part of us.
